Overview - Sun Princess is based in Australia sailing to ports in the Pacific and Asia. In May 2012 she offers a Round World Cruise ex-Sydney. This mid-sized vessel gives the feel of uncrowded luxury, with access to a wide range of large and small public rooms. The interiors are attractive and warm, and the glassed-in upper decks provide plenty of light and connections with the outside world. Sun Princess attracts mostly Australians, with some New Zealanders, and a high number of seniors, especially in the off season and for longer cruises. Passengers enjoy mingling in a sophisticated setting with good food and entertainment in an affordable package.

Take-away food is available at the pool side.

Entertainment & Activities - In the evening having two show lounges (both theatre and cabaret style) is a great way to give passengers more entertainment choices.
